Source text - English Based on statistics published by the National Statistical Office (NSO) in 2019 , Thailand has approximately 67.77 million people, and the proportion of men and women in the total population is about 49% and 51% respectively. The Ministry of Social Development and Human Security (MSDHS) estimated about 21.3 million households nationwide in 2015, and about 60% of which are classified as low-income households. Middle-income households and high-income households in Thailand occupy an equivalent share of about 20% each.
Over the past five years, Thailand has seen an average of 240,000 new buildings added into the total building stock annually. About 90% of these new buildings are residential buildings and virtually all new residential buildings constructed are low-rise buildings. In terms of the total building areas, the low-rise and high-rise buildings with floor area less than 2,000 square meters each collectively account for about 97% of the total floor areas constructed annually, and these buildings are not subject to the Thai Building Energy Code
Annual demands of new residential buildings in Thailand are met by private sector developers, builders and government funded projects. For government funded projects, the National Housing Authority (NHA), a state enterprise under MSDHS, is one of the main developers/builders in the Thai housing market, offering various types of homes for buyers of all income levels (i.e., low-, middle- and high-income households). However housing units developed by NHA to date target primarily on low to middle income households, since the demands from these market segments have not been addressed by the private sector developers/builders. According to NHA, an average of 50,000 housing units for low-income households of which the selling prices are lower than THB 1 million (or about USD 32,000) were supplied to the housing market annually in 2018 and 2019, accounting for about 23% of the total residential market size. For the low-income household segment, NHA is the largest developers in Thailand , and reported an average market share of about 36% in this segment in 2018 and 2019.
